calico who would join a party and greet all visitors. She couldn't believe

neighbors' homes, and once fell asleep on the laundry pile in someone
else's house! When a German Shepherd came near our house, where her
calico and Siamese kittens where sleeping, Jenny jumped on his back
and rode him down the block. He never returned to bother the kittens!

time, but she sees the other cats through the glass door. She throws
herself against the door and makes a loud bang with her paws to freak
out the other cats.She is always kneading her paws, so it can be painful
to have her on your lap. She is such a cool cat, We are so glad that
she found us. She is our watch-cat. . Submitted

Lewis and Clark. Neutered male cats. Gray, green
eyes, long-haired, persian mix. I didn't know it would create fearless
explorers! It was just cute names...until I tried to keep them indoors.
Not! Have you ever tried to sleep while a cat "plays" window blinds
at 4 AM on Saturday? "Out Mom, now!" After 3 years, Lewis is content
to hang out on the deck railing, literally, taking swipes at everything
on reconnaissance missions past the feeder--from ravens and bluejays
to swallows. I've discovered every neighbor on the block knows them,
as they apparently use their dog/cat doors to go visiting...great. I
love my energetic cats, but beware, they live up to their names!.

Natalia . My natalia I got from a friend and named
her after a Spanish friend of mine at the time. this is a pretty and
delicate name for a sweet black girl. .
Leila . I don't have a cat with this name, but
I've thought that it is a gorgeous name which flows well. It's Arabic
for "night" or "born at night" and would make a great name for a mysterious
looking, exotic little girl cat .
Inkie. I have owned Inkie for a little more than
2 years. She was a stray; my son found her hanging out at his apartment
complex and with no pets allowed; he thought I should have another cat.
Being the cat lover that I am-I said yes. Inkie was a mess: Matted coat;
fleas; underweight (she weighed 4 pounds.) All that's gone now and she
weights a healthy 9 pounds. Inkie is a black domestic long-hair with
an independent streak as wide as any inter-state highway. Recently,
she has learned to knock on the front door to come in, if you don't
open the door IMMEDIATELY, the louder the knock. Last April she was
run over and sustained a broken shoulder; nine broken ribs; and internal
bleeding. Well, she survived and I call her my $1000.00 stray. But the
main reason she is so special to me is that my son Brian gave her to
me; Brian was killed in an car accident in May 1997. Every time I look
at or hold Inkie, I think of Brian and his caring nature. .

Kichi & Tosco. We got her as a stray kitten through
the humane society. When we brought her home she was so happy to be
out of a kennel that she raced around, not paying any attention to objects
in her path. She ran head on into our sliding glass door several times.
My sister was taking a japanese language course and suggested Kichi
(translates as crazy). It stuck. We later got a kitten through the S.P.C.A.
and named him Tosco (rough in spanish) as he proceeded to tackle and
rough-house with our very prissy Kichi. They now are the best of friends
and will sleep with and groom each other constantly..

Mouse. She looked like a little rat when we took

Phantom. When you can't tell if the kitten is
a male or a female, then 'Phantom' is ideal! Then if she's a girl, she
can be 'Phanny'. If a boy, then he can be 'Tom'! It really is a bit
better if it's a boy and you have dogs. Then, when you pick him up for
cuddles, he's a 'fine Tom'. You can get the dogs to 'find Tom', or he
can be simple 'TomTom'. It works for us!. Submitted

in rescuing the mother from a conference center in Houston when we were
there on a business trip. We all live outside of Boston. The mother

but to name him Neil Diamond. cjk.. Submitted

Henry, Liza, Sylvester, Sabrina. Cats like people
names. They feel that such names as 'Fluffy' and 'Muffin' are beneath
them. Any name that reflects their regal and important nature are good,
especially naming them after Kings and Queens. .

between a Siamese and a White Persian. The Birman Fancier's Society

year of "N" and since I am such a Neil Diamond-nut(!), I had no choice

Baily. Baily is a dark gray and light gray stripped
cat with a white chin, belly and leggs. The reason we picked Baily as
her name was because she has beige spots on her. Just like if someone
spilt Bailey's Irish Cream Liquor on her. She is a wonderful cat, who
likes to fetch toy mouses, and paper. She also likes dry coffee and
chocolate as a treat. . Submitted by Heather

Frank, Midnight and Fluffy. Frank was a cat my
family had when I was a baby. He was very protective over me when I
was in my crib. He would always make sure nothing happened to me. I
never remembered Frank but I heard he was a sweet cat. He was a Mane
Coon. Midnight was the name of a cat that my family had for almost ten
years. She was a very good cat but she died because of seizures. We
think she got bitten by a snake. She was a black cat and she didn't
like to be messed with very much but she was a really great cat. Midnight
is a great name for a cat. It's simple and a good name. Fluffy is the
name of the kitten I have now. she's the sweetest little thing. She's
like a doll. She is a Mane Coon also. We named her Fluffy because she
had the fluffiest fur when we got her. She's not so fluffy now but she'll
be beautiful when she is a cat. Fluffy is now the only cat we have and
hopefully she'll always be with us. I hope these cat names were a real
help..
Diamondust. It's a thoughtful name for a cat..

twice the size of the other cat. Very vocal about defending damsels

Puff. Puff is Powder's sister. They look exactly
the same except Puff is MUCH bigger and very sturdily built. So she's
really the other half of the powder puff idea. But she really does look
"puffed up" compared to Powder!. Submitted by
Karen Burger <kmb@foxberry.net>

a very sweet personality and face. She was named because she reminded
us of a powder puff.. Submitted by Karen Burger

Shamrock Patrick (Shammy). Shammy is a black cat.
Gave him the name Shamrock to offset his being black which to some is
not good luck. Patrick is after the goalie for the colorado avalanche
and for St. Patrick because a saints name is good to have. To me it
is the bestest name for the bestest cat in the whole woild. .
Paczki. Paczki is a 5 year old female, Paczki
is polish for a type of pastry, dough filled with jelly, we named her
this because we found her pregnant about 3 years ago. She was filled
with 5 kittens! We kept her son Stormy and the other 4 found good homes.
. <Paczki4>
Kisa, Zoe and Aslan. Kisa is my other cat that
I now have. She is also jet black and is actually half-Siamese. She
will be 9 years old in May. I named her Kisa, because it means "kitten"
in Russian. I found it in a name book and liked the sound of it. Zoe
and Aslan are mother and daughter. I found Zoe when she was thrown out
of a car when she was pregnant, and I rescued her. I named her Zoe because
it means"life" and I felt it was a good name for a new beginning. Aslan,
one of her kittens was actually the runt of the litter, but she was
the first to open her eyes, the first to walk and the first to go exploring.
I thought she was as brave as a lion, so I named her Aslan, after the
Aslan, the Lion King of Narnia in the Chronicles of Narnia (even though
she is female). I just moved and could only keep two cats so I kept
the two oldest and surrendered Zoe and Aslan to the SPCA. Within three
or four days, they had found new homes, although not together. .

Merlin. My cat, Merlin, is almost 15 years old
and a black Bombay. When I got him he was a little devil and I almost

my "Mr. Cat" and I love him dearly, . <keely@octonet.com>

& white and is pretty perfect!
Eva. One of my cat's names is Eva. She seems to
enjoy her name being called. I vary between Eva and Evan..
day-bit.
Isis, Bastet, and Osiris. A friend once told me
"The ancient Egyptians worshiped cats as gods; cats have NEVER forgotten
this." So when we adopted a little black kitten (with a few white hairs
on her chest) we named her Isis since black cats are sacred to the Goddess
Isis. When we adopted a little white kitten, we felt Bastet was an appropriate
name because the Goddess Bastet is sometimes referred to as The Great
White Mother. And finally, when a little black boy kitten showed up
on our doorstep, and we realized he looked just like Isis, we knew we
had to name him Osiris. Osiris was the husband/twin brother to Isis.
Duncan B. Good. He was originally called Duncan,
but the B. Good came along after we got to know him better. He lives
up to his name daily.

that was names Peter died of kidney failure. He was only 3 years old.
I love that name Peter. Submitted by Dori

CJ. My husband wouldn't agree to any of the names
I suggested. Finally, I suggested CJ after his beloved Jeep CJ7 he bought
about the time that the cat adopted us as parents. I was sick of suggesting
names and knew he'd go for this one. Now CJ just looks like a CJ --
cute and playful.

him from the cat shealter where they said he was quite old, we added
